Greenwich Township, Cumberland County

Greenwich Township, Cumberland County is a township in Cumberland County, New Jersey, formed in 1748. The town was named for the town in England, and English settlers developed the small community between the Cohansey River and the Delaware Bay into a town. In 1774, local patriots burnt British tea and pronounced the town name "Green-witch" instead of "Grehn-itch" to differentiate themselves from Great Britain shortly before the American Revolutionary War. In 2015, 787 people lived in the small town.
